My Subjects


This is my grade 8 Eporfolio. This is where my work has been and will be showcased for my student led conference. Throughout the year, I have learned many things. I have learned things in the subjects, math, l.a, science, and social studies.
The two things that I am good are good at making EXPLORE responses and also I
am good at finishing my work on time. The 2 things that I need to improve on is staying on task
and also I need to study more for tests. My goals for the next 6 weeks, is to start studying more and pay
attention to what my teachers need to say about the topic.

Adult Response

In looking at your work, I would like to compliment you on the following 2 things
In the last 6 weeks of school I will help you reach your goals by:



Math

Term 1 Reflection



Term 1 was a pretty good term in my opinion because I did pretty well on my quizs and I am pretty proud of the mark that I got. I also think this was a good term because I learned many things such as proportional reasoning, ratios, but I already knew a bit about rates but then this term it expanded my knowledge of rates. I also learned about the pythagorean theory. I didn’t know anything about that kind of theory but it was so much simpler for me because I know more about triangles than I never had before!

Term 2 Reflection

In my own opinion I did well on Volume. I really enjoyed it because I understood the formula’s and many other things. I find it simple. I did pretty good in my volume tests. I struggled on Surface area and the nets. I do not know how I did the tests, it really confused me. I didn’t get it. In next term, my plan for me to do better is that I can do more of my homework. I think I struggled with that the most because I honestly got really tired, and lazy. I am not going to slack off next term. In percents, I learned how to calculate and find taxes on items that I never thought I could ever do! In surface area I found how formulas are really helpful and needed. I also found out that in Volume it’s really easy. It is sort of like surface area but in a way it’s not.
Listen!

Intergers


In intergers I didn’t do so well that I thought I should’ve. It really confused me especially the part of something subtracting something. Or such as (-89)+(-85) That got me really confused because I didn’t get I have thought it about thinking like money but I didn’t get it. I got better at using zero pairs.

The man who planted trees


3: The man who planted trees relates to me because we have days to clean up our environment and also their are people who warn us about pollution in plays, and also many other ways in our community.

5: People who approach the problem about our environment, are by thinking about all of the problems in the world today. How we take care of our environment. In my own opinion it motivates people because the earth is becoming severely injured and people need to start becoming aware or there will be nothing that can survive on our planet.

6: The different characters attitudes during the play are:
Jean: Jean agrees what Elzeard is doing and supports it.
Charcoal Burners: They don’t care about the land nor about the trees.
Elzeard: He wants to have a better life for people around him, for them to be able to live and be happy.
The Government: They don’t care about the land or about the trees, just like the charcoal burners.
Member of Parliament: They don’t care, they could care less about the trees and the environment.
Timber Merchants: They don’t care about the environment, all they care about is their money, and how they are getting paid.
Villagers: They don’t know how it got there, but they are grateful because they can live a happy life with that forest that Elzeard planted.

10: Trees affects the environment by a lot. It takes in carbon dioxide and it gives us fresh air. It can give warmth for family and also if there are bushes or food like an apple tree it gives the family around the area food. If there are food and berries animals can get to it and be healthy.

2 Minutes to Make a Difference





My topic for the 2 minutes is child labor. A few of my "big questions" are If this is a big problem, why doesn't someone legalize child labor? Some of the key points that I have researched is that the materials that we use can be MADE by child workers. In my project we are almost planning to do our action and the project is due on the 11th of May.
